ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound in assessing leuprorelin treatment response of girls with central precocious puberty . Methods Forty girls with central precocious puberty scheduled for leuprorelin treatment were enrolled . Ultrasound examination as well as the serum hormone level test of luteinizing hormone ( LH) and follicle stimulating hormone ( FSH) were performed prior to the treatment ,after 3 and 9 months of treatment . The correlation between uterine volume ,ovarian volume and hormone levels were analyzed . Results After 3 and 9 months of leuprorelin treatment ,both the volumes of uterus and ovary and the levels of LH and FSH were significant reduced ( all P < 0 .05) . After 3 months of leuprorelin treatment ,the reduction rate in ovarian volume was positively correlated with the reduction rate of LH and FSH ( r = 0 .335 , P = 0 .034 ; r = 0 .334 , P = 0 .035) . No correlation was found between the reduction rate of uterine volume and hormone level changes ( r = 0 .110 , P = 0 .501 ; r = 0 .257 , P =0 .109) . After 9 months of treatment ,the ovarian volume reduction rate was positively correlated with the reduction rate of LH and FSH ( r = 0 .327 , P = 0 .039 ; r = 0 .356 , P = 0 .024) ,and the uterine volume reduction rate was positively correlated with the reduction rate of LH and FSH ( r = 0 .439 , P = 0 .005 ;r =0 .433 , P = 0 .005 ) . Conclusions Leuprorelin could effectively inhibit hormone release and gonadal development in girls with central precocious puberty . Ultrasound examination , as a noninvasive and convenient method ,could dynamically monitor the volume changes of uterus and ovary ,thus reflect the development of gonadal development directly and the changes of hormone level indirectly . It could be used as a routine outpatient follow-up method after central precocious medicine treatment .
